If it's more convenient for you, it's good.
Through "the normal layout" I was thinking about the dots printed by the manufacturer.
Maybe I was wrong, but for me it is logical that the button with one printed dot should be number 1, the button with two dots is number 2 etc.
Similarly, I set it up at home on another system. each touch panel follows this sequence:
1|2
3|4
5|6
7|8
Of course, on my panels it does not matter which button is related to what but in the software the buttons are marked from left to right and so I know which circuit is on which button when i change something in my object manger.
But hey... it is more important that it works for us.
